Senator Bourne Suggests Way to Get Voters Qualified Early. (Wublngton Boreas of Tbe Journal.) . 'Washington, Jan, 14. Senator Bourne has a new plan for making Oregon po litical institutions popular and helpful. In a letter to county clerks he writes: "It Is now conoeded even by the bit terest enemies of popular government that the Oregon system has come to stay. Heretofore the friends of popular government have been compelled to de vote their energies to defending that system against the attacks of lta ene mies and have had little opportunity to devote attention to the task of im proving the system or perfecting its operation. Now that the opposition has been overcome, I am writing to ask your opinion of a plan which I believe will niaKo the system work more satisfactorily. "As you know, our" statutes require mac me secretary or state snail mail to every registered voter certain pam phlets, giving information regarding candidates and measures to be voted upon by the people. Distribution-' of these pamphlets and their careful read ing by the people is a very Important feature the system, and therefore ear ly registration of voters is desirable. "I suggest that county officers, espe cially county clerks and school superin tendents, arrange with citizens of all parties In rural communities to hold good government rallies In schoolhousea. at which (meetings a notary public or Justice of the peace can be present' to fill out registration blanks for voters and send the same to the county clerk.' At such meetings measures proposed for adoption by tbe people could be dis cussed. Quite likely good feeling would be promoted by not discussing candi dates on such occasions, but leaving the discussion entirely to measures. In my opinion, the Initiative and referen dum is of great value as an additional agency, since it encourages voters to tttdy--and-draetis public- questions. These good government rallies at county schoolhouses would not only be a benefit socially,: but secure early rer Iteration and be a benefit educationally. Tuey would tend to make the operation of our popular government laws more satisfactory, and thus further refute tbe assertion made In the east by the enemies of the Oregon system that our laws are impracucaoie. . i "I am also writing; the county super intendent, because he has general super vision of the us of our schoolhouses. I wish you would talk with him, and If you approve the plan, take such steps as you deem best to start the movement in your county. I believe this will help you to get eany ana complete registra tion. In rural communities, and faclll Late your own work. "I will appreciate an expression of your views." x , HOLDUPS SAY "JOKE," RETURN COIN, GO FREE , v (Special to The Journal.) Huntington, Or., Jan. 14.

Or ganisation of - the working-men of the United Kingdom for better Industrial and social conditions la the watchword of the annual convention of the British parliamentary Labor party, which met here today, under the chairmanship of J-Raroaey MacDonald, M. P. ine party, which represents 2.500.000 trade unionists and already has 43 mem bers In the house of commons. Is pre paring to wage a vigorous campaign to secure a mor representative propor tion. Among other things it is proposed to start a dally newspaper. . Hitherto handicapped by the necessity of paying salaries to its members elected to par liament, now that under the government bill passed at the last session, every memoer or tne commons receives a sal ary or izooo a year, the Labor party will be able to devote Its funds to other purposes. . During Its three days 'meeting, the convention will discuss 85 printed pages of. resolutions... Some of these, favor general adult suffrage for both men and women; the nationalisation of railways, canals and mines; reduction of the old age pension qualifying the limit from 70. to 60 years, and the reduction of contributions paid by workmen and em ployers to the national industrial insur ance fund. The Insurance bill Is booked for a lively discussion, and it Is likely that a number of amendments will be urged. Attempts of employers to secure the repeal of the trades disputes act which gives unions the right to picket premises under strike, will be censured, and the convention will direct the executive com mittee to take steps to prevent such repeal. One resolution, which will likely be passed, calls for a general Btrlke In the event of interference with the act ESTER TRUST BOYCOTTED STEEL TRUST ' Washington, Jan, 14.
